Abstract

The invention relates to a method and a device used for expressing the process flow, which is characterized in that: the optimal process flow is expressed by means of an optimal point; and the current value of the parameter of the process is used as the points respectively displayed on the position keeping distance with the optimal point; wherein the distance is determined by means of a power function.

Description

The method and apparatus that is used for expression process stream
Technical field
In the prior art, for control procedure circulation often only provides treated information, these information are got off by clerking as characteristic parameter and measurement parameter or are present among the EDV (electronic data processing).
Background technology
Still not having at present can be at short notice by the method that directly generates following information in the process stream, promptly for example be provided with in following 24 hours with respect to ideal process stream (Benchmark, " benchmark ") therein or the information of the progress of the process in the longer time period as required.
Summary of the invention
Therefore, the technical problem to be solved in the present invention is, a kind of method and apparatus that is used to improve the process current control is provided.
According to the present invention, this technical matters is that the feature by claim 1 and claim 2 solves.
For machine, when the process stream of monitoring machine, normally come that with respect to a best operating point current operating point is carried out Delta and observe (increment observation).
Similarly method is considering also can be used for business procedure under the condition of the characteristic parameter of a business procedure and/or operational factor.
Utilize the present invention, can provide to the operating officer of enterprise or council and determine as calculated and through the current information of visualization processing, this information demonstrates the current business operating point of enterprise and the deviation between the best service operating point.The present invention includes approximate " measuring equipment ", this equipment with graphic alphanumeric display (for example by " spider diagram ") show determine as calculated, and the desirable operating point of business procedure between deviation, perhaps only show deviation (, then showing the optimum operation of for example prediction and the deviation between the predicted value) if do not carry out or be not provided with the intervention of change with best service point.Calculate desirable operation, and it is visual in the width of cloth " spider diagram " for example that the department of deviation will take place when producing deviation.
In addition, out of Memory that demonstration is used to proofread and correct when causing deviation by selection department and possible adjustment lever are so that turn back to desirable operation.This visual for example with existing dominant technology realization, as PC or portability or hand-held PC, or have the mobile phone that respective graphical is supported.
For example, can predict following 24 hours.
According to degree of accuracy, also can consider the prediction of longer time, for example 1 month about the operational data of influence factor.
Also be suitable for use as the early warning system according to Process Control System of the present invention thus.
Therefore, the present invention not only for the control machine processes but also for the control business process provide about related service or machine run point with respect to the ideal operation when prelocalization in real time, important information, this information is about the prediction in the special time period, and show in for example mode of " spider web ", this spider diagram has selectable further information or to influencing the prompting of possibility, current operating point can be guided to optimum orientation by these information or prompting.
Below each step can be comprised separately by method of the present invention, also can be combined in the embodiment:
The parameter of a. pre-defined ideal (business) process, these parameters are configurable and can also be complementary with each (business) process that will investigate by the weighting evaluation.Can gather these parameters according to the time, that is to say, these parameters are the parameters that can derive from current data and anticipation trend; Therefrom determine desirable (business) process.
B. determine the deviation of current (business) operating point with respect to desirable (business) operating point based on Power Function (Guetefunktional), this Power Function is also considered variation or its influence in time in time of each function.This temporal correlation and the investigation time period of determining by definition (be typically following 24 hours, can considering the longer time period fully under the condition of considering bigger blur level) will be considered when determining Power Function.The time scan rate of input parameter is undertaken by particular time interval (for example 15 minutes).
C. with the form of spider diagram will and desirable service operation point between deviation visual, this spider diagram is indicated the cost size on coordinate system.And the deviation between the ideal value, and is represented with the form of corresponding national currency (as Euro) than calculating with %.By this spider diagram visual two kinds of information in a width of cloth figure:
The direction of-deviation and
-the whole status visualization of big young pathbreaker by deviation area when a plurality of deviation is arranged.
D. when PTI, do not show the situation that does not surpass optimum value for some factor (for example risk=0), but cut away compensatoryly.Owing to undue deviation of filling between that a kind of factor causes and the best time will arouse attention as the minus deviation for other factors.
Can provide other instructive information by in spider diagram, clicking (for example by mouse) each " coordinate ", these information can comprise strategic conclusion or indicate needs which adjustment (adjusting) lever of change (influencing parameter) to reach target, that is to say, but parameter is figure ground to be selected, and (one such message for example can be expressed as follows: factor " risk ": application process XY (referring to the 123rd page in handbook)) to export the information that can be used to improve current operating point.
